In this video Master Blender Richard Paterson (Whyte & Mackay) talks about the benefits of using The Glencairn Glass when noising and tasting whisky.

[@ALE2163233]

That guy swirls the whiskey like a maniac.

[@ireneuszgoleniowski6927]

This gentelman is great. Plenty of knowledge, spirit, passion and love for scotch whisky. Thank you for posting this!

[@bormanten]

The Glencairn glass is the perfect vessel for single malt scotch whisky. Just one of the many wonderful whisky secrets I learned from Richard Patterson.

[@timophycook9509]

Me at a party talking to my whiskey: "Hello. How are you“

[@thegentlemansretreat9742]

How happy he looks when he says the flavours of scotch whiskey cannot be copied anywhere else in the world, top man

[@jchiodo97]

I could listen to him talk all day. I'd learn a lot and enjoy more. Thank you sir.

[@RobertUWL]

the best glasses in the world for whisky - i love mine and i love the nosing copitas too ;)

[@NomadLIFEreviews]

I recently started using the Glencarin Glass and love it, best glass for Scotch, Bourbon and all Whiskey really.

[@1337fraggzb00N]

Watching this while enjoying the lovely Ardbeg Corryvreckan - of course poured in a Glencairn Glass.

[@hoodatbug6424]

Just got my Glencairn glass not too long ago. I love it.

[@BadWeatherfreak]

Where did you buy it?

[@herodotusfumosus4753]

It's really the best glass to enjoy single malt whisky.

[@vincenteliyahu4759]

I love this guy his knowledge and humor is so great ! 😊👍

[@peaceandwealthseeker4504]

Just got two of these in America and I admit they are quality and stellar glasses for whiskey

[@christopherfrost]

This is awesome, I've seen Richard Patterson in a few videos and he's fantastic! (although this video does look like it was shot for tuppence ha'penny)

[@Lukergamer]

He also loves tossing whisky around on the floor. With or without ice.

[@ProfMichaelMacD]

I love my Glencairn glasses! Perfect for tasting and enjoying!

[@Ricoliets]

For the music lovers, the song in the intervals is: Morrisons Jig

[@freespeech9515]

Beautiful demonstration

[@jeremythornton433]

I use and love these glasses! Exquisite little things.

[@m3lowiesvlog715]

There are 4 steps 1)Hello 2)how are you 3)quite well 4)thank you very much!

[@SilverWatcher.]

Swirls like a BOSS. My man, had me on the floor wasnt ready for that.

[@synthvault]

Hey that's Ralfy's bar (from ralfystuff) they are showing at the beginning! Ralfy and Richard should do a video or two together.

[@mollyoko]

Don't think Ralfy would be caught dead with this silver haired silver tongued salesman

[@toddstevens6608]

Yes the Bonaccord pub!

[@davidmc107]

this is the glass my store carries :-) Wasn't sure of its purpose. Thanks Richard.

[@ianhunt3634]

He looks better un-airbrushed but I still love him.

[@GunnerM60]

I love how he's talking about Scottish whiskey and they're playing Irish music in the background...

[@scruffy7697]

I love this video i can get enough of this guy. Did any one else notice the hunting knife and sword hanging from the wall behind him. LOL

[@pablomansini6449]

This guys got some serious charisma

[@PoolsideCigarReviews]

Rarely do I enjoy Scotch without my trusty Glencairn... therefore, it's my favorite glass in the cupboard. haha

[@LostInIce4]

Superb glass for Cognac also.

[@ArumesYT]

Has he ever produced a video WITHOUT throwing whisky on the floor?

[@jonathanheidenreich8565]

Tip: I have found whole sets of Glencairn glasses at thrift stores, perfect condition and at under 50 cents each. Before you drop $ online be sure to do a thrift run, you can find some real gems.

[@macklee6837]

Hello How are you? Quite well Thank you very much

[@stevelittle3973]

1.20 keeping it in the glass is surely more important?

[@steveee2511]

I HAD A GLENCAIR GLASS WITH WRITED ON IT GLENLIVET IT WAS THE BEST GLASS I HAD IT CAME TWO MY TWO DIFERENT TRIPS IRELAND,UK,SPAIN TILL I LOST IT ONCE .

[@ljp1942]

Buy another one BRO.

[@beakerbeeker5252]

If you tour The Dalmore distillery do you get to get to have a dram with Richard? I have got to have a scotch with this guy!

[@bryanmartinez6600]

Beaker Beeker he'll spit and still have the whiskey bottle

[@MansMan42069]

The dram is the one he throws onto the carpet XD

[@MrGrxxx123]

This gentalman is a true ambassador of scotch whisky

[@tonybucks5709]

2:55 pretty good, thanks.

[@HellenicBM]

The rage when he spilled Dalmore on the ground!

[@Denver_Risley]

Oh, to be the janitor after he's given a tour.

[@Federico84]

how much whiskey should i drink before i can start talking to a glass?

[@theonlyonemrz954]

Like a Sir....

[@paulyoung3504]

Excellent video, however, there are actually five regions. You left out Speyside. (How very dare you!) Much as I enjoy my Glencairn glasses, my absolute favourites are my snifters. Never have I had a problem with spilling half the contents on the pub floor when swilling for aroma. Then again, I don't tend to swill using the Dennis Lillee bowling action. Hurrah.

[@dthellland9738]

has anyone done soundboard for prankcalls yet? hello? how are you?

[@JoeGunGames]

How do you clean the glass?

[@AmorrSummerstorm]

Are they sold only in Scotland?

[@jimmd68]

The people on here who don't know how to drink whisky need to shut up, quit posting and go somewhere else. Patterson is absolutely correct. If you like whisky, you owe it to yourself to get a set and watch all of his videos.

[@stanpratt6546]

Same could be said about snobs

[@bryanmartinez6600]

I only drink to forget my past.

[@Nyle95]

Is it also good for cognac?

[@opslagtanks]

Love em !!

[@tropikilla]

Oddly enough, got my first Glencairn Glass at a rum distillery 😂

[@TheMacdubhsithe]

i have not seen a video of this man where he hasn't spilled scotch on the floor

[@zionrion5651]

Ah this guy is a proper Scottish whisky guru.

[@TheCrashluke]

He is really into saluting whiskeys

[@nuzengahicastle6090]

its really hard to watch whisky videos if u dont have any next to you

[@neilboyle8]

Does Rambo know you have his knife???

[@northerniltree]

I don't want to have a conversation with my single malt. Heaven forbid, lads, if the dram starts to insult the very nose you're plunging into it.

[@BlazyBluntz]

Anything this man emphasises and describes would seem interesting lol

[@502Aviation]

I actually prefer my Scotch in a copita, and my bourbon in a glencairn.

[@robfut9954]

The Ron Burgundy of whisky I see...

[@ben_has_hobbies]

This man loves to spill Whisky.

[@squishyplums2415]

1:18 did he spill that Dalmore? I would sniff and lick it off the floor.

[@BirdArvid]

Love the video and agree on all counts. But watching those tap-handles... How could the British isles go from being a real beer Mecca with wonderful British beers in all pubs to a cheap, offensive lager-swilling lout-house?! There are many beers which are tasteless and dull. But Fosters is actively bad. 1664 is just dull. Thank gods for the Craft-beer revolution all over the world. But none of it is a patch on great single-malt, of course..

[@Blurbs-mj1ej]

Fancy,...

[@cadmus777]

I thought "Scotch whisky" was a term that only non-whisky heathens used???

[@kizzzay]

Mr. Patterson: Don't compain about wrong glasses spilling Whisky on the floor, when you, at the same time, demonstrate the right way to taste Whisky is to pour the first dram to the ground. That makes no sense.

[@superbird6176]

Hello Whisky. How _you_ doin'?

[@dagosi]

This guy loves to spill his Whisky.

[@RjBenjamin353]

A Master bullshitter, God he`s good.

[@Mark-ro5zg]

I'm no expert but you should't be swirling whisky in the glass like you would with wine.

[@hardcoreromeo2111]

My man knows his shit

[@maddy04u]

Stooopeeedoooeeeoos

[@naitsirk32]

2:43 when he talks about why the glass is perfect keep the focus on the man, dont start moving the focus on to the whiskey... smh

[@derbigpr500]

This guy a master bullshitter. :P

[@Feynman1231]

the wet floor guy speech well

[@learnit465]

These type if guys could sell dead bodies

[@iancrombie8862]

White & Mckay and Dalmore...coloured....chill filtered....usually 40% abv....not for me!😒

[@alickswiden71]

well he's certainly one to complain about putting lots of whisky on the floor....

[@ShturmanBasov18]

I've got an idea: don't swirl it around like there's an earthquake going on. BOOM!

[@alpinebeergetithere]

Richard Patterson is an absurd caricature of a whisky connoisseur. His advice on nosing and tasting is as contrived and disingenuous as the Dalmore that he hawks. Anyone who tosses the first pour to "cleanse" the glass, or twirls their dram like they're aerating wine, is a smeg-head. The guy's all tacky flash with no substance

[@muizzy]

You do realize that this is one of the best blenders in the world right; :P

[@alpinebeergetithere]

I'm not questioning the man's blending skill, nor am I doubting the refinement of his palate. I am however dissatisfied with the sleazy manner with which he presents himself and his product. It smacks of contrivance and mendacity. By swirling his glencairn as vigorously as he does, he's dispersing the aroma particles clear out of the glass. All of his sequinned tap-dancing only serves to propagate the false assumption that whisky drinking is a pretentious endeavour.

[@SundownTE]

Your idea sucks

[@skinny4]

Lmao

[@bennytejeda]

your not suppose to swirl whiskey/scotch.

[@rs2143]

The first time i watched this chap i thought he was wacky .No verry smart chap.

[@Smithy67]

I wouldn't believe anything a man that uses hairspray says ... this is just pretentious nonsense

[@SRdrastik]

Pretentious af

[@TomCook-jw6ur]

Scotch whisky is nasty; one would only drink the piss if no Bourbon were available.

[@maoristereo]

Whiskey all tastes like orange death.

[@roro2k]

Flake

[@LegateMalpais]

So much effort put into consuming alcohol. Pathetic.
